The 1More Sonoflow is less expensive and offers better overall sound quality, which may suit you if that's your priority and you're conscious about budget. However, the Soundcore Space Q45 comes with higher-quality active noise cancelling and portability features, alongside stronger durability, making them a slightly better option for travel and noisy environments. Both models support LDAC for high-resolution audio and have a similar comfort score. If ease of use is important, the Q45 has more refined built-in controls. For extensive use, the Sonoflow has a slightly longer advertised battery life. Neither is particularly well-suited for gaming or TV due to latency considerations. Choose the Sonoflow for its sound and value, or the Q45 for superior noise cancellation and portability. Give Feedback

How the 1More Sonoflow and the Soundcore Space Q45 compare to other earbuds and headphones
"The SonoFlow is cheap and fun, without going too far into being overly warm or annoyingly grating, or sharp sounding. The ANC features are lovely with strong app integration and excellent battery life."
"The Anker Soundcore Space Q45 is a great pair of active noise canceling (ANC) headphones, and the $150 USD price tag only sweetens the deal. Unlike many mid-tier wireless headphones, the Q45 microphone system rejects quite a bit of background noise, making this a great work headset too."
